The last time fans saw Jordan Simone on the field at Sun Devil Stadium, the gritty safety was flat on his back, his right ACL torn during a 2015 contest against Washington.

This season, Simone will return to the field but in a different role. After his determined push for professional football fell short – again, because of injuries – Simone will serve as a pregame host and sideline reporter for Sun Devil Radio Network, a new gig that keeps him around the game he loves despite the heartache it has caused.
